Sow & plant
  • Courgette

    Soil is warm enough for these frost-tender plants to establish quickly and produce heavily through summer.

  • Nasturtium

    Fast-growing and heat-loving, nasturtiums thrive in June warmth and bloom within weeks.

On your list
  • Water containers daily

    June sunshine and warmth dry out pots rapidly, especially terracotta and small containers. Water in the morning or evening, checking daily and ensuring drainage holes are clear.

  • Pinch out tomato side shoots

    Remove side shoots from cordon tomatoes weekly to focus energy on fruit production. For bush varieties in containers, simply remove any diseased or ground-touching foliage.

Keep an eye out
  • Aphids
